In that description of the upcoming episode,
"and there's an explicit rape scene"has me worried. Face flaps, degloved hands, quarts of blood tossed around, those I can deal with.
Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I have a rape squick, too. I don't deal with it well, at all. Can make me feel rage for hours and days.
I don't know how this one will play, but it sort of turns the squick on its head.
It's interesting and I can't wait to discuss it.

Well, no. I guess maybe these critics are doing their laundry while watching or something.
I certainly hope that's the case, because otherwise the gulf between objective reality and what this critic is seeing is very, very worrisome.

Is it findable somewhere other than usenet? PC's link no worky no more, and the torrent is giving me no love.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Insent, Jon, but not in any way to imply anything illegal.

I echo Jon B.
Though, I'm still not quite at 57% (again). I anticipate failure, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Damn, twenty-five downloads already! Let me try putting it up on Rapidshare.
ETA: Ah, can't. Small download limit. And Megaupload blows like nothing else. I had another YSI upload going before, but it crapped out. Blarg. Here I go again.

I'm trying to upload it to YSI also. Have no idea how long it will take though.

I may have to seize the cat.
I too, will try and YSI.
